Join us if you thrive working on hard, unsolved technical challenges on the cusp of what is feasible, in order to make the biggest positive impact you can for real people and not just corporations and assembly lines. This role owns the end-to-end Sensing stack, including the software and hardware. You will develop and integrate pose detection and world estimation solutions that can tolerate occlusion and work offline, communicating the state of the world to the robotics.
About You:
- You are clearly a go-getter
- You reason from first principles.
- You build things that work, fast.
- You are decisive. You naturally gravitate toward doing instead of (over)analyzing. You also know how to dive deeply into a problem if warranted.
- You have a very low ego-to-ability ratio.
- You are mission-driven. You care more about what you can do for the company than vice versa.
- You have a deep sense of integrity and responsibility. (Won't stop till it's done, won't let folks down. Team player.)
Key Characteristics:
- You’ve designed and built something impressive involving integrated electrical systems and connecting sensor hardware to the software brain.
- You have a strong understanding of physics first principles.
- Your experiences have demonstrated your exceptional ability.
Preferred Experience:
- VR and AI teleoperation robotics (ex. haptic gloves with pose detection, force detection)
- Robotic Hands (Wuji, Allex, see table at end of this blog post; bonus if tendon/cable driven)
- Consumer electronics
- SpaceX or other kickass space/satellite startup - especially Avionics team
- Consumer drone companies (Skydio, DJI, one of the many strong new drone startups)
- Automotive from fast-paced co’s like Tesla
